Quote HistoryQuoted: Hell ya! And for the record, I think Mandalorian was one of the best shows of the modern age. Watched Clone Wars, and then the extra last season thereof.

Just finished it. I think the show is off to a good start. The Order 66 stuff from different perspectives is interesting to see.
The "boy" from the previews...isn't. I was kinda  at first, but I guess it's a girl version of a clone? Not sure how that works but I have faith that Filoni knows what he's doing. Excited to see where the show goes from here. When the opening narration named the Jedi that was about to be shown I was like:

Off to Saleucami to see Cut Lawquane next episode, and that's probably where Rex will be as well.
Sector J19 is the Saleucami sector when Eeth Koth was being held by Grevious Obi-Wan read his hand signals and they said sector J19 the Saleucami system. |

Nah he's gotta catch up to Gregor and Wolf first, I bet he told Echo about Cut and that it would be a good place to hide out if shit went sideways someday and Echo told his new friends because they wouldn't care about a deserter because to hell with rules right. Plus Cut owes Rex for not remembering any of "this". |

I thought it was pretty good and we got (spoiler) right off at the start! I hope that means we'll see him again.
Why do y'all think Omega is a force sensitive clone? Aside from all the other cloning force sensitives storylines I didn't pick up on any abilities aside from the lucky shots at the end. But I attributed that to the fact that she has Jango's DNA all over her. A female clone doesn't feel that woke to me (not as woke as Mary Sue Rey does all things with no training). Really not that far off from Laura / X23 clone of Logan in Marvel. Hoping we'll see Rex saving Wolff and Gregor soon. |

I think a force sensitive clone would explain the prime ministers scene about keeping it quiet for now. That would not make sense if it were just a female jango clone. And a force sensitive clone would tie into the Dr. Pershing/Mandalorian story line. |

My daughter and I just finished the Kaydan comics so I too was a bit turned off by the changes. I guess they could still incorporate characters and parts of the story of Caleb Dume.
Overall we dug the first episode. I love this time period right after order 66 and felt the movies never really gave it the attention ot deserved for such a huge moment in the SW universe. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I thought it was pretty evident. Defective force sensitive female clone. I doubt she is "defective" in the same way the Bad Batch are. Their accidental genetic mutations were enhanced for greater lethality. I'm guessing Omega is a "strand-cast", an intentionally genetically engineered person. Whoever's DNA they combined with Jango's was probably force sensitive and the Kaminoans are keeping that secret for now. |

I agree that there is nothing so far indicating Omega is force sensitive, but who knows as the series goes on. My impression is that she’s a genetically modified Fett clone, in that she’s female, like the other 4 Bad Batch members are also modified clones. Her skills with a blaster could simply be just another part of the genetic modification process, as the Bad Batch clones all seem to be superior soldiers. |

Thankfully, as already mentioned, she looks like a young version of Jango/Boba. And you’d think Palpatine would be overseeing his clone personally, not leaving it up to the Kaminoans. Omega's story will probably play into it, but Exegol and Snoke are mostly being unfucked by the comics right now. Palpatine had been working on the Final Order since the early days of the Empire, which explains why the Xyston class Star Destroyers are just scaled up ISD-Is rather than ISD-IIs. Palpatine was also working on cloning his future host for probably just as long. He is shown to have Luke's severed hand on Exegol with early failed clones. So there's a high probability that Snoke was made with a combination of Luke and Palpatine's DNA. What I'm guessing is that Omega is force sensitive. It's eventually discovered by the Empire, which kicks off Palpatine's force sensitive cloning experiments because Vader is walking husk and unsuitable for the force transfer. That leads into Moff Gideon's hunt for Grogu's blood, which ultimately creates either Snoke, Palpatine's son, or both. |

I wasn't picking up any "force-sensitive" vibe from Omega, but I wonder about her lucky shot on Crosshair. Could be the force, could be her heretofore unmentioned genetic-defect-special-talent. You know, just like the other individual genetic-defect-special-talents the rest of the Bad Batch have.
The real question is will Crosshair become the villain of this series, or will they be able to get him back into the Bad Batch fold? |
